Filter your tap water and eliminate that no-win decision of "should I buy expensive bottled water or use the chlorinated water from the tap." This water filter kit features a 10" carbon block filter that removes all chlorine and organic flavor. Kit includes 10" housing, one carbon block filter, garden hose attachment, barbed fittings and 6' of 3/8" vinyl tubing. The carbon block should be replaced after filtering approximately 800 gallons of water or after 1 year of use, whichever comes first. Filter should be disassembled and stored dry when not in use.

NOTE: This product should not be used in hot water applications. Cold water only!

This product includes a carbon filter and is designed to filter water only (Carbon filters should not be used to filter beer or wine).

Highly recommended - more cost efficient and effective than carting around jugs of bottled water. As other reviewers and MoreBeer recommend, need to adjust the flow through the filter to just under one (1) gallon/minute.

Makes great tasting water. That being said, I really bought this for drinking water and still use mostly RO water for brewing. Currently using about 10% tap filtered with this and 90% RO because I have very hard water and this filter does not remove minerals. If I use any more filtered water it is very hard to get mash pH in range. 4 stars because the tubing is pretty cheap and came bent so I had to replace it with more flexible silicone tubing.

This works extremely well! It’s a great safe guard as you don’t know the quality of the water or its contents. It takes one more variable out of the equation to make sure you come out with quality brew.

I got tired of hauling RO water from a machine so I decided to give this a try. My tap water is already pretty good but it comes out of the charcoal filter without the slightest hint of chlorine, which is a great thing.

If you, like me, are putting of water chemistry for a later challenge, this thing is a must have for the use of tap water. Once I finally get an RO machine and all the stuff needed to build my water I'll put this bad-boy under my kitchen sink!

Chlorine can add a medicinal or band-aid type flavor to beer. Lighter beers like pilsners are especially susceptible. After brewing a nice band-aid flavored beer, I purchased this filter and I have not had any trouble since.

I run mine from a RV hose about 30 feet away from my brew pot so a on/off valve in-line would really help.

I've had this for a year and I have nothing bad to say about it. I used to buy jugs of water at the super market, but hooking this up to my tap is much easier and does save some money in the long run. I'd recommend this to anyone interested in a filter for brewing.

Integrated this guy into my process and my beers have greatly improved. My city water is pretty good as is, but this still made a noticeable difference. The value is fantastic too with the included stainless fittings, filter, and tubing.

I don't trust my city's water report and won't drink the tap water either. The water quality is considerably better when using this filter system.If you're looking to take the next step in better beer and haven't address you water this should be your first step in controlling your water source.

I used to purchase 5 one gallon jugs of Spring Water for small batch brewing and after using this I immediately facepalmed myself. This saved so much time and made the brewing process faster and easier. My only regret about this purchase is waiting this long to get one!

I use this to filter the chlorine from water with a charcoal filter, then switch over to a 1 micron filter to remove sediment from beer prior to kegging. This filter housing works great for both purposes and is easy to change filters!

This filter makes it easy to be sure you're starting off your brew session with good quality water which will give your beer the best chance of tasting great in a few weeks. There's nothing worse than detecting some weird flavor in your finished beer and wondering if (among many other factors) your brewing water was at fault. Just run your water through this filter and you'll have one less potential problem to worry about!

This filter does a really good job of getting the smells and tastes out of your standard tap water. Where I live, I would consider the water unusable for home brewing. I have resorted to using 7 gallon jugs to get water from a neighboring town, or RO water, but then you have to deal with putting all of your minerals, etc. back in it. This filter takes out the funny smells and tastes and is convenient to use and then take apart to dry.

Ease of use and saving a lot of trips to the water store. Had been contemplating making our own, or buying one from a hardware store, but after reading the reviews for the umpteenth time we decided to buy this water filter and haven't looked back.

This filter works very well. It has a solid design, and definitely gets gets the job done. While it won't do much for the mineral composition of your water, I have not tasted any off flavors due to Chlorine in my beer when using this filter. If you aren't using a reverse osmosis, you should be using one of these at least.

I have tested the PPM before and after filtering. It seems to work great. I have seen it take 100-200ppm out of the water. Lately I have been getting brewing water around 250PPM. I have not tested exactly what is inside those ppm yet. The beer is turing out great so I will accredit some of that greatness to this filter.

This is a very simple and straight forward water filter, but with that being said I don't brew without using water that has been filter and this was the best investment for filtering in my brewing system.

I would highly recommend this for any new brewer just looking to get a more solid base in their expanding brewery setup.

I do almost all of my brewing outdoors on my back patio, where the garden hose is the most readily available water source. By running the hose through the filter I am able to have clean, filtered water whenever I need it and in an unending supply.

Great product! Once I mounted the filter on the wall it was the easiest thing to use and cheaper than some of the other alternatives in the market. I wish the bracket came with proper mounting screws though.

Water filter kit works great. And if you want to remove chloramines, follow MoreBeer's advice and use at a fill rate of less than 1 gallon per minute - this was backed up by other research I found online.

And it's flexible too. You can buy other 10" filters (like FIL62 or FIL65) and use the same assembly to filter your beer. Don't use the carbon filter in this kit to filter beer! All you have to do is find the right fittings to use with your brewing setup!

Sounds great being able to get double duty filtering - water AND beer. I was looking at a separate beer filter. Do they have quick disconnect adapters to allow switching from garden hose for water to ball lock adapters on both ends for keg to keg beer filtering?

Good Filter

This is a great filter. TIP: make sure you leave this filter out to dry after you use it. Otherwise it can get funky and you'll get mold or worse.

I hook this up in my laundry room and it saves me a trip to the grocery store to load up on gallon jugs. Up front, it's a bit more, but between the convenience and the savings after a few brew sessions, it's 100% worth the price.

I brew with municipal Lake Ontario water. It's quite good in the cool months, but come late fall, the taste can become a bit funky as the chlorine level is adjusted to combat the summer's tiny lake critters. The unit and filter are made by a top class manufacturer. It is used in dispensing soda and coffee from commercial machines. This would be a great home filter for an ice maker, etc. The cartridge can treat up to 800 gallons. And I bought it on a Beer Deal special!

This is a well built product. I wish there was a hook for when you set it against the keg when filling. I have been filling before and dropped it from about 5-6 feet and it landed on the concrete. No cracks at all. Also I moved across the country in the heat of summer with it slightly wet inside. No mold at all. Very Satisfied.

This filter does exactly what it's supposed to do, and with the included hose connection it is super easy to use.

There is nothing that keeps it in place, and I would HIGHLY recommend you get the mounting bracket as it just wants to roll around when in use, but at $3.00 that's an easy upgrade to get or make one yourself.

The included filter should last a year, and are very cheap to replace. They also dry out quickly after brewing, so storing is easy.

This was a good investment, as I have found that filtered tap water in my area is just as good if not better than purchased stuff, and no hassle. The filter is easy to assemble and clean and very good quality for the price.

This filter is excellent at doing it's job while providing a real nice flow into my boil kettle. Get a long enough tubing to reach your kettle and the lifting and moving of heavy water containers is OVER!

I made the mistake of using straight tap water only once. The phenolic/chlorine taste in the final brew ruined it. So then I started buying spring water at the grocery store - what a pain, carrying around 10+ gallons of water, planning to go purchase it in advance of brew day, adding cost to the brew, etc. Then I saw this and it solved all my problems. Works great, no leaks, effectively removes chlorine aroma and taste as long as you do not run water through it too quickly.

I don't know what is in my water, if anything, but I still filter my brewing water using this and I have made a lot of good beer with it. I am not a water expert but I know that my beer is mostly water so why not start with some good water. I had to swap the hoses out for some longer hoses, but it works great and I would not want to brew with out it.
